Pushback question

[stayup]

i am using X-Plane 10 and recently downloaded Simple Pushback and placed it in the plug in folder. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. I have tried using the default hot key, shift+f1, with no success. Anyone else have this problem? Is there another pushback utility , freeware or pay ware, that will work?

Would appreciate help with this issue.

Thanks,

Are you using 64bit? I think it only will work in 32bit.

Thanks, John , for the response. I do use the 64 bit version, but I did try the 32 bit and that did not work either. Do you know of any other push back utilities that work with x-plane 10? I'm somewhat surprised that x-plane 10 doesn't  include a push back function.

Thanks,

theres one on the .org, its called "simple pushback" theres no car but it does the pushback sequence. just use your rudder to navigate where to go.

Airfrance, that's the one I downloaded that I can't get to work.

[AF380]

HMMMMM, did you place the correct .xpl for your platform in resources>plugins? like windows.xpl, mac.xpl, linux.xpl

Airframe, I did. Checked it a couple of times.

mmmmm, there could be something wrong with x-plane itself not reading the file. but at this point i dont know what else to say. i mean you could just try restarting x-plane and see if it helps but other than that, i got nothing.

Try this:

It's a very good plugin with lots of trucks and extra features!! The download is at the bottom of the page!

Thanks Erik....I tried it and it didn't work for me. Do you have X-Plane 10 or an earlier version?

I have X plane 10.21 and it works perfect.

It is only 32bit though, correct?

Finally figured out that it only works with 32bit and for some reason I had to change the hot key....i changed it to K and it worked . Like to thank everyone for their help.

[SwissCyul]

[nickff]

[SwissCyul]

Ok,

 

that doesn't help me

 

Are you using 64bit or 32bit? Which plugin are you using?

[nickff]

i play x plane 10 64 bit and i downloaded all the python plugins that i was suppost to and i put it in a folder like it tels me to do on the x plan 10 org forums and it didnt help the instructions maybe i put the plugin wrong i need like direct directions. 

[nickff]

should i use 32 bit because it crashes every time i use it i use x plane 10 64 bit

[SwissCyul]

Then your installation is probably wrong. To solve the problem you should delete the whole python installation and redo it. 

It didn't work for me either the first time. But I followed the procedure again and it works. So please read the manuals for python and it should work  

[nickff]

last question can you send me the link for that and then i should be complete because im not shure if i understand the python stuff
